- Weak oppose I don't know much about the subject, but it seems that it's a bit blurry. crassic![talk] 23:51, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support The subject at least seems in perfect clarity to me. And it does seem to add to the article.--St.daniel Talk 01:23, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support de Bivort 02:27, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Suppoer Fantastic picture. The freddinator (talk) 02:51, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose Very poor sharpness. Also lighting could be improved as overall it looks too dark/flat. --Fir0002 06:08, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support. Illustrates the subject very well. Spinach Dip 08:23, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Weak support Weak, because of the somewhat muddy look - can probably be corrected. DOF is always a problem in macro shots. High enc. --Janke | Talk 14:54, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose The original taxobox picture which you replaced, with your picture in the article seems to be better. Muhammad(talk)
- Support. More detail and less distracting background than the other image, and sufficiently sharp. — BRIAN0918 • 2008-04-18 16:06Z
- Oppose per Fir0002. Good subject, mediocre technical quality. Thegreenj 21:41, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose per Fir0002. Not really an outstanding picture. WN1971... A Symbol of Freedom 22:37, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose per above. And I agree that the original image looks better. 8thstar 01:40, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- Weak oppose. Although it is a good illustration of the insect(s) here, but brightness and sharpening is needed for the spider to stand out from the background. Jingshen 16:15, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- Ermm... Isn't the whole point that it doesn't stand out from the background? Thegreenj 22:19, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- Support. I see every pollen grain, and this is a 3000px+ image. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 10:29, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- I withdraw my nomination - A better and more exciting version is beig nominated above -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:01, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
